Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for April 18, 2010

“Credentials” are pretty easy to print up and laminate at Kinko’s.

If I ask for credentials from a solicitor, how do I know they aren’t fake?

“Nothing is too good for you, Dick Tracy”, the note reads. Does this mean Dick’s won the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes?

So if someome offers to sell you fake ID, check his ID!

Dick has a swelled head in the second panel…

‘Morning, VB! Don’t you keep me up tonight with any more movie suggestions, okay?

Groan.

ZZZzzzzzz……

sooo they broke his window to pay him a compliment?

Joe-Allen “Joe” Doty said, “I knew there as a note taped on the rock and I was mocked for posting that yesterday.”

That’ll teach people to not mock you, Joe!

He had no gun today. suppose we will have another week of nailbiting suspense looking at the broken window. I still remember the thread with gravel gertie that seemed like it would never end…..

I suppose it’s better than the note which read “Your window is broken. Call Ace Glass, 555-1212” which I saw in a movie some years back.

Now, why do I get the feeling this “murder who-dun-it” that Dick has been invited to is a really bad idea?

JDG said, “He had no gun today. suppose we will have another week of nailbiting suspense looking at the broken window.”

The broken window’s shape will change every day. We’ve probably seen the last of the AMC Pacer, though.

The best thing DT could do is to call the police. and report the incident. (Let a pro handle the situation).

Instead he’ll probably open fire again and kill the trash collector, newspaper carrier, milkman, and several of the neighbors cats and dogs.

The gun is missing.

weird.

Joe-Allen “Joe”, I assume you’re referring to this comment from yesterday:

_puddleglum1066 said, Actually, it looks more like the rock is held together with random pieces of tape._

I saw that and took it as a criticism of the art, not mocking of your post.

alright…I’m officially only going to read on Sundays anymore

I betcha this whole window thing and any other further events will all end up as part of the mystery play he is is s’posed to be considering

The rock that came through the window clearly does not have a not attached to it.. did the note flutter in afterward?

When Dick subscribed to the “Uplifting Message of the Day” service, he was expecting emails..

gill you are right, the rock clearly did not have a “not” attached to it.

Tracy’s night vision is awesome.

Hay not gets past me..lol

a clue and a threat! dt=less than nothing?

Soooo…nothing is too good for Tracy. That’s why they smashed his window with a note covered rock? Or maybe now the game (murder mystery) is afoot.

There are many types of scams. Always tell a solicitor “No” and slam and lock your door.

I agree, Ray. Like so many of Locher’s Crimestopper’s Textbooks, this one is so stupid that it would actually get you into trouble if you took it to heart, because it implies that as long as you’re satisfied with their credentials, then it’s OK to do business with some stranger knocking on your door.

I miss the yellow duckies.

What continues to impress me is the amount of ways Dick Locher finds to keep Tracy from going to WORK in the mornings.

Heck! He’s dodged the morning shift since November 2008.

He’s a “home-body” now, lets sub-up and send him a “rocking chair” for his birthday. You know it’s TIME to retire when he has to come up against a former Villain’s Grandson !

Would this be based on a solved or unsolved Tracy murder case?
